In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

As a trainer, who wouldn't want to encounter a legendary trainer and catch one? Unfortunately, I'm not destined for that.

Let alone subdue them, even a chance encounter is a luxury.

Meanwhile, inside the arena, Mei had already defeated her opponent's last Pokémon, successfully completing a three-in-a-row with Serperior!

"This year's Quartz Conference is of a really high quality."

As she watched Mei joyfully embrace Serpent Lord in the arena, Campfire raised an eyebrow and said with some surprise.

It's already afternoon, and the preliminary rounds are proceeding smoothly.

The forum posts for the Quartz Conference are constantly being updated, and there have been quite a few players who have defeated their opponents in a 1v3 format.

A trainer who can sweep an opponent's team with a single Pokémon is undoubtedly very strong.

It's clear that this Quartz convention will be quite exciting.

"Indeed, and Crimson and the others have already appeared."

Touko nodded in agreement, a strange light flickering in her clear eyes. She had to admit, she was once again glad she had made that choice.

Staying in Kanto to gain experience was truly the best decision.

"I wonder what ranking I'll get this time." Touko then said with some anticipation, as she had been working hard to train this year.

Compared to last year, her skills have improved significantly.

"As long as we don't have any bad luck, we have a chance to reach the quarterfinals. Have you thought about where you plan to go next year?"

Bakura smiled and replied, but he didn't say anything like telling Touko to set her sights on winning the tournament.

Because that was a complete joke. Even Touko herself knew that even without Bakura, Akame, Ao, and Ryū, Alice was an opponent she could never defeat.

"I haven't decided yet. I might go to the Hezhong region to challenge them." Touko pondered for a moment, then shook her head.

She hasn't really thought about that yet, since the Quartz Conference isn't over yet.

"You can come to Alola for a challenge~ We have gyms in Alola now."

Lillie blinked, then, holding Bakura's arm, invited Touko.

"Bonfire Sister is now one of the Gym Leaders in Alola."

She didn't know Touko, but it seemed that Bakura and Touko knew each other. Since they were acquaintances, how could they not come to Alola to take on the challenge?

"Huh? Is this true? The Alola League is going to be formed?"

Touko was taken aback upon hearing this and looked at the campfire in surprise.

Alola is Bakura's hometown, and Touko certainly knows this, but how come Alola has established a gym?

"Yes, you can challenge me next year."

The campfire revealed a sweet smile; it was very satisfied and proud of its status as the owner of the venue.

"This one……"

Touko's beautiful eyes flickered slightly; she was still very tempted.

The newly formed alliance is something to look forward to, and being able to be among the first challengers is something to be remembered!

"If you want to hone your skills, you should definitely try the Alola Challenge. I can guarantee that Alola will not disappoint you."

"Alola's Gym Leaders are all very strong, making it the most challenging region at present. In addition to the Gyms, Alola also offers unique Island Tours for you to challenge."

"Furthermore, I plan to establish a battle expansion zone, so I believe you won't feel idle for a whole year."

Bakura, seeing Touko's dilemma, strongly recommended it.

For a trainer like Touko, who is driven, has dreams, and is resilient, what she fears most is a region that lacks challenge.

Because they have always been steadfastly moving towards becoming trainers!

"Thank you. Since it was Mr. Bakura who recommended us, we will definitely take on the challenge next year."

Bakura's words completely solidified Touko's decision, since she had always been very curious about Alola anyway.

After all, Alola is a world-renowned tourist resort region, and Bakura obviously wouldn't lie to her.

"You won't be disappointed. Let's watch the next match first. If you run into this girl again, you'd better be careful."

Upon hearing this, Bakura smiled and replied, turning his gaze to the arena.

Touko immediately looked towards the arena. Since it was Bakura who said it, it must be an extremely powerful trainer!

Mei has left the field, and after the venue was repaired, the next round of players have already taken to the field.

On the left, however, is a slender and adorable girl with a golden ponytail.

Little Yellow!

That's right, Bakura is here because of Yellow's match, which is about to begin!

"Next up are Huang from Viridian City, and her opponent, Mizuki from Cerulean City."

The commentator in sunglasses gave a brief introduction to the two players, and the battle quickly began.

"It's a pity, little sister, the League Tournament is not child's play, and I won't go easy on you."

The blue-haired youth, Shui Kui, lowered his eyes slightly, a smile playing on his lips as he spoke calmly, his tone brimming with a sense of superiority.

After all, Xiao Huang's appearance was too deceptive. She was slender and thin, with a pure and innocent face, and exuded an aura of "I am a weakling".

No matter how you look at it, she is an innocent and naive young girl.

How strong can a girl like that be?

"Today, big brother will teach you a good lesson. Here comes the white sea lion!"

Sunflower tossed the Poké Ball high into the air, and a Delicious appeared in front of him.

Although it's a grassy terrain rather than a water terrain, Anemone is clearly very confident in her white sea lion.

"Please, Paper Sword."

Faced with Shui Kui's provocation, Xiao Huang did not retaliate with words. After a year of growth, he still maintained that pure heart.

But she also understands that in the world of trainers, no matter what rumors or contemptuous laughter there is, as long as you fight back with absolute strength, that's all that matters!

The Poké Ball opened in mid-air, and a cool, white Pokémon landed gracefully in front of Yellow.

It is humanoid in shape, with slender blades for its arms, a five-pointed star cut out of its face, no obvious facial features, and legs that gleam with a cold light like sharp blades!

This is a Pokémon with sharp blades that makes people's hearts tremble at the sight of it. Its entire body seems to be a weapon, exuding a cold, sharp, and dangerous aura!

Paper swordsmanship!

One of the Ultra Beasts, codenamed 'UB04: Slash'! An Ultra Beast that highly values ​​aggression!

"This kid is really strong!"

After carefully examining the paper sword, Bakura's lips curled into a satisfied smile.

Sure enough, this girl did not disappoint him.

"Huh? Isn't this a paper sword?"

Upon seeing the spirit clearly, Lillie's little face showed astonishment. When it comes to Ultra Beasts, no one knows them better than Etherland.

As the head of the Ether Paradise, Lillie naturally recognized the Paper Sword.

"It's the paper sword that young master Bakura gave her back then, but it looks very powerful."

The campfire spoke up, her clear eyes sparkling with a strange light. When Bakura gave this paper sword to Little Yellow, she was still quite doubtful whether Little Yellow could gain the paper sword's approval.

Although the paper sword was not yet an adult at the time, an Ultimate Beast is still an Ultimate Beast.

Even though it was an Ultra Beast with extremely strong instincts, it was still very difficult for Little Yellow, who didn't even have a Pokémon at the time, to gain Karatama's approval.

However, it now seems that Xiao Huang has not only gained the approval of Paper Sword, but has even nurtured Paper Sword to be extremely outstanding and powerful.

Even standing at such a distance from the battlefield, observing from the campfire, one could clearly feel the sharp and dangerous aura emanating from the Paper Sword!

This is an extremely dangerous Pokémon!

"Onii-chan actually gave her an Ultimate Beast on his own initiative?"

Lillie was even more astonished upon hearing this. Xiao Huang looked much younger than usual; he must be one of this year's newcomers.

Although it feels a bit wrong to say it like this, Lillie has come to understand Bakura's personality very well after spending so much time together with him. Bakura is not the kind of kind person who is overly compassionate.

“You’ll understand once you keep watching,” Bakura said with a smile, ruffling Lillie’s blonde hair.

Meanwhile, Touko and Mei, who had just finished their battle, were also curious and ready to watch the fight closely.

They were quite curious about this girl who seemed to be highly regarded by Bakura.

And at this moment on the field.

"What can those light and airy elves do?"

"White Sea Lion, use Freeze Ray!"

Looking at this completely unfamiliar Pokémon, Mizuki's usually composed face also revealed a solemn expression. The deep chill emanating from within undoubtedly proved that this Pokémon was no ordinary creature.

But being proud by nature, he would not easily show weakness!

The white sea lion let out a soft cry, and icy blue energy condensed, transforming into a winding beam of light that struck the paper sword.

"The Holy Sword!"

Xiao Huang's face was calm. Once she entered battle mode, she would maintain absolute focus regardless of the strength of her opponent.

When it comes to battle, one must approach it with the utmost seriousness; this is her motto.

With its two blades extended, Paper Sword lowered its body slightly and shot towards the white sea lion like lightning.

It was so fast that it almost became a white blur!

In contrast, the white sea lion's freezing ray is actually slower!
